Neoarchean suprasubduction zone arc magmatism in southern India: Geochemistry, zircon U-Pb geochronology and Hf isotopes of the Sittampundi Anorthosite Complex

► First high precision zircon U-Pb ages from the Sittampundi Anorthosite Complex (SAC) suggesting crystallization at 2541 ± 13 Ma. ► Geochemical features suggest suprasubduction zone arc magmatism in a convergent margin setting. ► Neoarchean continental growth at the margin of Dharwar Craton in southern India.
